Pietro Paulo Montagnani

Pietro Paolo Montagnani aka Pietro Paolo Montagnani-Mirabili (Rome, 1740[1][2] - date of death unknown) is a late 18th C. - early 19th C. Italian engraver (burin) and publisher of books and prints who lived presumably in Florence, Italy, around 1800 - 1820.

[3] Around 1790 Pietro Paolo Montagnani published a series of engravings picturing the Sibyls (Latin: Sibylla, s.; -ae, pl.)

[4] In 1805, Pietro Paolo Montagnani-Mirabili published a book on "ancient monuments, news on the antiquities and fine arts of Rome", Vol.

VIII (or, more likely, VII, according to some scholars, attributing it to a typographical error in transcribing the Roman numeral in later imprints or facsimile editions).

The series published probably around 1789[17] by Montagnari included vedute of "Palermo, near Monreale"; of the "Theater of Taormina"; of the "Etna volcano"; of the "Amphitheater of Siracusa", of the "Interior of the city of Messina after the earthquake of 1783", and of the "Port of the galleys of the Arsenal of Malta".
